I was delighted to be invited as a Guest Blogger on Notes on Design. I’ve been a freelance writer for quite a while, but doodled on the side. A few years ago, however, people started offering me money for my doodles, and I began to take illustration more seriously.

I experiment with a number of styles; I’m sure I’ll eventually settle on one longterm, but for now I’m having fun. Working with the digital drawing and painting tools in Corel Painter makes this possible.

Some illustrators sketch on paper then scan the drawings into the computer. My illustration and cartooning process is entirely digital from start to finish, using my Wacom tablet and pen.

I created today’s illustration with Corel Painter 9.5 using various digital brushes such as Sponge, Croquil Pen, Airbrush and Leaky Pen.
